Reflection On Final Exam
Final Exam Essay The reflection quote at the beginning of the exam instructions is an interesting
thought. I see myself reflecting more on the life aspects of this quote versus the complexities of
how it affects my writing abilities. I entered into this course with few expectations of my writing
abilities after my last composition course. There are still more flaws in my writing abilities than
perfections. However, the confidence has been built to be able to complete writing assignments for a
future employer. My process in writing an essay, report, or proposal has remained the same from
the first composition course to this technical course. I can write adequately but do still struggle
with different aspects of the composition process. My expectations starting this class in May were
extremely low after the struggles with the first composition course I completed. My goal was to do
my best and just try to maintain a passing grade. However, this course was different, there was a
practicality involved that I crave to do my best work. It was interesting to put together the financial
plans of a non–existent company that in realty will never come to pass. The TV show "Shark Tank"
makes these presentations seem easy. But it does not show the many hours the owners must put in to

Examination Should Not Be Abolished
Examination is a very wide word, which is used in all spheres of life. We have exams everywhere
around the world. Youngs and adults can have exams, there is not a particular age to have exams.
However, some do not agree that exams are important. Examination is a word that most students
are fear of. A word that has a power to change a happy person into a frustrated and nervous one.
However, it is a big part of the school that all students have to go through. For some students, they
think that exams could make them stress and could cause depression. They have to burn the
midnight oil just because they have exams. Well, students should know how to manage their time so
that they would not feel stress. Exams could give a big impact in everyone...show more content...
However, many students may overcome their nerves so they may perform well. Exams also
improve students' responsibility. The students will have more time to study about the topic and plan
the strategies for the exams. They will be more responsible towards their works just to be one the
top. So, students should be optimistic towards exams. Examinations add to our ability, power of
toleration, perseverance and other good qualities. Exams are not only necessary but they are also
blessings.
As a student, we will have loads of homework given by the teachers. For some students, they will do
all the homework by themselves and they will do well with their own effort. But sometimes, for
some students that are weak in certain subjects, they will seek some helps from others. This mean
that they do not do the homework with their own effort. So, how can the teachers access the
students' performance through the homework? For the class tests, different teachers will have
different marking schemes. Some teachers are too lenient and some are too strict. It would not be
fair for the students. Without the exams, the teachers cannot assess the true ability of a student and
that is why exams are important.
For the students that achieve well and are able to pass with flying colours results, they surely will
be happy. It will motivate and keep students on their toes. Some students that are not able to achieve
their goals, will also be motivated and it will

Literature Review On Examination Phobia
2.Literature Review
2.1.Examination Phobia Every individual experiences some fear or anxiety during life time but with
varying threshold. Fear or anxiety, when strong and unreasonable is considered as phobia, however,
stimulus causing phobia differs between individuals. Examination Phobia is a psychological
condition in which someone has the experience of extreme stress, discomfort, excessive and
unreasonable fear before or during the examination. A little ofanxiety, tension or nervousness is
healthy to perform better but when this stress or tension becomes so excessive that it actually
hampers the performance in an examination, then it is called Examination Phobia.
2.1.1History Test anxiety is common among students worldwide. It was formally studied during
early 1950s by researchers George Mandler and Seymour Sarason. Irwin G. Sarason, the brother of
Sarason then contributed to early research of test anxiety by explaining the link among the focused
effects of test anxiety, other focused types of anxiety and generalized anxiety. Psychologists Liebert
and Morris (1967)...show more content...
As tension (anxiety) continues beyond this point, performance efficiency will drop to sub–optimal
level. Initially anxiety is considered adoptive as it helps the people in improving their function or
performance. After crossing peak or optimal level, anxiety is considered mal–adoptive as it impairs
their function or performance. The anxiety someone experience before an examination is the
example explaining how the said law operates. Stress at an optimal level helps in focusing on the
examination and to remember the knowledge that have been studied; on the other hand too much
exam anxiety (exam phobia) can hamper the ability of concentration and make it more difficult to
memorize or retain the

Managing Exam Stress Essays
Define stress: Stress is the body's natural response to a threatening situation, and stress causes the
release of hormones such as adrenaline, that prepare the body for its instinctual response to a threat:
flight, fight or freeze. The adrenaline causes processes in your body to change, for example, your
breathing and heart rate quicken, your senses sharpen, muscles tighten and your blood pressure is
raised. These changes allow your reaction time to increase, which could mean the difference between
life and death. However, many people, including students, live in stressful situations every day, and
this has a negative effect of their health.
Factors causing exam–related stress: One of the main causes of exam–related stress is the...show

There is a fear of disappointing a person such as a family member with poor academic results from
exams, or not being accepted into a tertiary institution. This fear motivates the student to do well, but
also creates stress because of the thought of not achieving top marks or being rejected from their
ideal university because of low exam results.
Inadequate exam preparation is a major cause of exam–related stress because the student feels like
there isn't enough time to study everything, and so they lose sleep because of worry or studying late
into the night. There are feelings of despondency and a sense of being overwhelmed by the amount
of work to study. Also, last minute studying lowers the chance of the facts being remembered, which
increases anxiety and stress during exam time. A lack of sleep before an exam, as well as not
having a proper breakfast or vitamin supplement also increases stress levels because the student is
tired, irritable, worried and the student's immune system weakens during stressful times such as
exams, increasing their chance of getting sick.
Learners' responses to exam situations: Nicky Hayes, the editor of Foundations of Psychology, says
that common responses to "exam stress" include disturbed sleep patterns, tiredness, worry, irregular
eating habits, increased infections because of a lowered immune system, and an inability to
concentrate. This is due to the increased amount of adrenaline being released into the body.

Essay about A Journey of Self Examination
As the wise Greek philosopher Socrates ever so boldly put it, "The unexamined life is not worth
living." In essence, in a bit mellower of terms, that is to say that if you do not take the time out to
analyze the core values of your life, you are limiting the quality and depth of your life. In regards
to this matter, I'd like to turn to some advice from Robert Gerzon. Robert holds a Master's Degree
in Psychology and is a licensed Mental Health Counselor. He has also authored a book called,
"Finding Serenity in an Age of Anxiety". "As a psychotherapist, I see so many tragic examples of
the effect of an unexamined life. The good news is that it is never too late to start examining our life
more thoroughly – and to reap the rewards." (Gerzon)...show more content...
There are some irrefutable facts such as mathematical and logical truths. Any logical person, for
example, would not attempt to deny an obvious fact such as that triangles have three sides or that
two plus two is equal to four. "The truths of mathematics or logic will always be true." (White)
The nature of reality is another philosophical issue which I had indeed considered before, although
seemingly not carefully enough. I believe that the study of philosophy has definitely broadened my
horizons. It's also made me more cognizant of the fact that someone's concept of reality may be
plagued with false information and I also believe it has opened my eyes up to how much different
people's realities may vary. The Matrix is a good example of how realities may vary and how what
one perceives as reality may in fact be an illusion. "In The Matrix, Neo discovers that what he
thinks is "reality" is simply "appearance" generated by electrical impulses to his brain from a
"neural–interactive simulation" designed by a race of machines to enslave humanity." (White) As
humans, we really can't know with absolute certainty that we aren't in some type of controlled
simulation similar to that of The Matrix. However, we are rational human beings and as such,
apply reason to come to the conclusion that this likely is not the case. An additional philosophical
issue that I believe mostly everyone has, myself included, pondered is the purpose of life. Why are

Disadvantages Of Examination Malpractice
Examination has been identified as the most objective method of assessing an individual's capability
and achievements and the effectiveness of educational programs. It is also used to determine the
effectiveness of a teacher or that of a teaching method. It is therefore a very important aspect of the
educational enterprise. It is because of the importance attached to it that people get test anxiety when
there is any doubt regarding the outcome of examination. Covenant University has been faced with a
problem which is examination malpractice.
The principle goal of university education is to prepare students to get the essential information and
abilities to empower them to contribute successfully to national development (National Policy on

HS933 OSCE Critical Reflection The following is a critical reflection of my performance during an
objective structured clinical exam (OSCE), as part of my training for the role of Psychological
Wellbeing Practitioner (PWP). An OCSE is an assessment technique whereby a student demonstrates
their competence under simulated conditions (Fidment 2012). For this OSCE, my competence in
undertaking a treatment session with a patient was under examination. The treatment session I
undertook involved discussing the patient's progress with behavioural activation (BA), a
cognitive–behavioural intervention used for people experiencing depression (Richards and Whyte
2011). When people become depressed, they experience a lack of motivation and energy, which can
result in them cutting back on activities, neglecting daily responsibilities and leaving
decision–making to others (CCI 2003). Avoiding activities gives the person short–term relief,
because they haven't had to face up to their responsibilities. Unfortunately, long–term, the list piles
up and instead of completing the tasks; they think about everything they haven't done (CCI 2003).
They start to feel overwhelmed and guilty that they are inactive, which worsens the depression.
Reduced activity levels and behaviours are detrimental to a person's wellbeing because they become
even less motivated, more lethargic and miss out on positive experiences (CCI 2003). Behavioural
Activation aims to break this cycle of negative reinforcement,

Exam Anxiety and Stress
What is exam anxiety?
Most students feel nervous when they saw their exam dates on the school/college notice board. But
those students who experience extreme panic regarding upcoming exams are considered as exam
anxiety cases. Most times students find themselves worried for exam for the excess fear of being
evaluated in exams. Also nervousness about the penalty or embarrassment from family and friends
makes it wicked. Exam anxiety and stress is experienced by many normal students in their school
and college days.
Starting from the pre–exam to results declaration days the students cope with anxiety and stress due
to exam. Anyone can find–out a student who is experiencing exam anxiety and stress from his/her
behavior. It's quite normal and controllable by the following helpful tips and tricks.
Prime sources of exam anxiety and stress:
Lifestyle:
Inadequate rest in the exam time highs the exam anxiety and stress level more. Also the students
don't take care of their health like poor nutrition strengthens the sickness. It directly influences the
exam anxiety and stress growth. Insufficient physical exercise and using of excessive stimulants
hampers the brain functions. Also maintaining a rundown attitude and giving less priorities to the
commitments or own study plan makes the route worsen.
Lack of information:
The absence of proper study plan and effective time management leads to an intensified level of
exam anxiety and stress. Actually the wrong exam appearing strategies

Can Tests Measure a Student? Essay
Throughout an academic life students will be asked to take part in prestigious exams, or as they
are more commonly known as the standardized exams. Do these exams really measure a student's
academic ability or does it merely measure their progress? Although these exams cannot measure
how intelligent a student is they can show a student's progress within the subjects that they are
being tested on. Therefore, when students are informed that these exams are going to be used to
see their progress they will not feel discouraged while taking the exams. So instead of feeling
stressed or discouraged they will be motivated to do well on the exams, since their goal is to see
progress within themselves. Progress is what teachers want to see in...show more content...
For example, there are plenty of students that " are smart and understand the content, but it doesn't
show on the test." (Columbia University The Pros and Cons Of Standardized Testing) It may seem
like a humorous point but there are some students that " develop test anxiety which hinders
performance..."(Columbia University The Pros and Cons Of Standardized Testing) but it not
only affects those taking the exam it also affects the teachers with some teachers quitting their job
since there is so much pressure on them to have their students ready for these exams. These tests
are also given to young kids from the age groups of five to ten years old, students at this age still
do not fully grasp the idea of why they are taking these exams and will begin to feel anxious and
nervous which "can lead to negative health consequences as well as feelings of negativity directed
at school and learning in general." (Columbia University The Pros and Cons Of Standardized
Testing) The results can be that a student will give up and just bubble in what ever they feel like just
so that they can get through the exam and not have to worry about it anymore. So why should these
obstacles be reflected on the students score, or

Advantages and Disadvantages of Examination
An examination is an official test of knowledge. We have exams everywhere around the world.
Ivanah (2011) argues that "Examination is an assessment intended to measure a test – taker's
knowledge, skill, aptitude, physical fitness, classification in many other topics". (para 3) Young's
and adults can have exams; there is not a particular age to have exams. However, some don't agree
that exams are important. This article will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of having exams.
Firstly, a person will be able to know his performance. Exams encourage the performance of student.
For instance if a person score low grade, it encourage him to work hard in order to score high grade.
And also it encourages people to work and learn, creates...show more content...
To illustrate "....Once the aim is set to get higher grades in exams, other abilities will have to be
sacrificed....." ("disadvantages of examination", Apr 26, 2010. para. 5). For example, too much
pressure of parents caused the student to penalize. Because there are many parents' day–to–day
activities which discourage the student's performance. The problem comes when the parent begins to
identify too much with the child's accomplishments. The parent feels embarrassed when their son or
daughter doesn't measure up to some arbitrary and usually unrealistic standard set by the parent. This
creates unnecessary stress on the students and often leads to a self–image of inferiority. They grow
up believing that they can never have a good enough time to study in order to pass exams.
Moreover, For instance what will happen if a person is sick or a dear one of his/her die? The answer
is that the person will be penalized.
Another drawback of having exams is problems with questions. If the question is not clear, the
student didn't not pass the exams. For example there are some bad questions which didn't make any
meaningful to understand. (e.g between Hen and Egg which one came first). You can't write any
answer till you understand the question. Additionally, if the student doesn't have the right to ask
question to the teacher, what happen? Student didn't not answer the question clearly.
Lastly, grades are all that matters in an examination education system. Get a high grade

How to Prepare for a Test
During my last semester at college, I postponed thinking about preparing for my tests. As each
test day came closer, I got worried and desperately started cramming. I drank enough coffee to
keep the whole city awake and woke up thinking that I would get a low grade. Eventually, I
realized that students who always earned A's on their tests were not just lucky, but they really
studied hard all through the semester. There are different ways to prepare for a specific test, and
each individual must perfect his or her own style. I have developed a process that involves five
steps to prepare for a test. First, you should find out about the format of each specific test by asking

A study guide is usually a separate booklet that accompanies the textbook and contains practice
questions and answers. While you are reading, mark important ideas and sections of that chapter by
using a highlighter or a colored pen. For example, highlight the topic sentences or headlines of the
different sections in the chapter and divide them into the subsections; this will make it easier for
you to review your textbook later. Third, you should form a study group or develop self–study
practice sessions. In your practice sessions, you should practice reviewing material that is
emphasized for your test. Also, you should practice reviewing material that is presented in numbered
lists that often provide the basis for essay and multiple–choice questions. For example, list thirteen
vitamins, or list warning signs for heart disease. Moreover, practice answering questions or material
with a lot of lecture or text coverage. Answer the questions you wrote in your text, and formulate
essay questions and outline answers. While practicing, if you have any questions that you are
unable to answer, consult your instructor to get the correct answers to study. Fourth, study
throughout the course; do not wait till the last day before the test to sit and cram your notes. In
order to follow your course material schedule, you will have to decide approximately how many
hours you will need to study for tests. Get a calendar and clearly mark off the hours each week that

Essay on School Examinations Should Be Abolished
Examinations, as we know it, have emerged to be the main facet of modern education in the
ever–changing landscape of academia. In an education infrastructure that is as unpredictable as the
clouds, it is somewhat ironic that the system of examinations as a means of judging a student's
ability has prevailed through the years. Every person, in their quest for knowledge, would inevitably
encounter numerous modes of examinations throughout the course of their academic journey. As
much importance has been attached to it in virtually every academic institutions across the globe,
the voices of those who lobby for its eradication are seldom heard, let alone be considered seriously.
There are various reasons for policymakers to initiate a rethink...show more content...
As the rigid examination system goes, he would be labeled and remembered for his mediocre results
in the examination, and not for the sterling performances he consistently displays in the daily
assignments. It does not help that, through many years of societal developments and evolutions, the
adults of our world have grossly incorrect mindsets on the topic of examinations. More emphasis is
placed on examinations just because they are the sole mode of assessment that counts in the final
grading. As much as the general public loves to refute, our society is driven by an extremely
judgmental mindset which marginalize those without distinctions or notable achievements in their
academic pursuits. It is simply wrong and unjust to base a student's intelligence and ability on a
single examination.
The fact that daily assignments are neglected leaves us with another point to ponder over. If it has
come to the student's realization that pieces of work which are handed out daily are unimportant,
won't he then turn a blind eye to punctuality and accountability? Procrastination, time's greatest thief,
would soon entail for his perception of these "irrelevant" assignments has been distorted to a great
extent. This would, in turn, lead to many different problems, for instance the constant reminder to
hand in assignments and students losing any notion of urgency. As much as the student is not
benefiting from the homework, the

the first examination of the new born is to confirm normality and to provide reassurance to the
parents (MacKeith, 1995, Hall, 1999) and also to identify any apparent physical abnormality

As well as the importance of good history taking and methodical reading of the medical notes in
order to identify risk factors that may require referral or simply make the examination outside the
midwives role. Dezateux and Rosendahl (2007) stipulate that the overall effectiveness, harm and
benefits of the examination remain controversial. Furthermore the view of the UK National
Screening Committee is that if the introduction of screening for developmental dysplasia of the
hip were considered now it "would probably not be accepted." However it is difficult to obtain
clear evidence about the effectiveness of the examination of the new born as it is deemed
unethical to conduct a randomised controlled trial in which are group of babies do not receive an
examination (Townsend et al, 2004). However the fact that babies are examined in the immediate
new born period is "universally accepted as good practice" and supported by national guidance such
as NICE routine postnatal care guidelines (2006), child health promotion programme (DH 2008) and
the UK National Screening Committee (2008) in its standards and competencies for practice. With
this in mind the next area of consideration is the timing of the examination. Almost immediately
after birth the baby will be examined by the midwife to

Dull sound can mean fluid or tissue filled cavity Hyper resonant can indicate air trapping in lung

INTRODUCTION
1.1Background to the Study Teachers at different stages use examination to assess and evaluate the
academic achievement of students in the school system. In all teaching and learning situations
therefore, it is essential to find out from time to time how much the students are achieving from what
they are being taught. In order to do this effectively, teachers, examining bodies like the West African
Examination Council (WAEC), National Examination Council (NECO), National Teachers Institute
(NTI) etc and classroom teachers assess the students by administering weekly, termly, end of year test
and final examinations. Bearing in mind the role that education is suppose to play in nation building,

In other words, since punitive approach seems to have failed to deter students from engaging in
examination malpractices, a preventive approach should be considered through an investigation into
the study habits and examination anxiety of students. Study habits and examination anxiety have
been found to affect academic performances either positively or negatively (Culler and Holahan,
1980; Spielberger and Vagg, 1987; Morakinyo, 1986; Birenbaurn and Pinku, 1997; Kagu, 2000).
These studies and a plethora of others, found that highly examination–anxious students typically
have poor study habits as well as negative, non–productive attitude towards academic work hence
they perform poorly in examinations. These established that student's study habits could either be
good and effective or poor and ineffective. Generally, it has been observed that most of the new
generation of students all over the world do not like to study hard (Bauer, 2002; Larson, 2003).
Students in Ughelli North Local Government Area are not excluded from this observation. Some of
them pay less attention when teachers are in their classes and spend much of their time in

INTRODUCTION
1.0BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY
The quest for exploration into "the effect of examination malpractice among the sociology student of
University of Abuja" is borne out of the concern for the need for improvement/provision of enabling
a good conducive environment that is conducive for the writing of examination and to avoid
malpractice.
In any given society, there are rule guiding the behavior of individuals as well as rights which give
the people the freedom to express them. So also is an education environment, where student come to
learn both in character and in learning and where they interact with other student lectures.
The education system is the instrument a society uses to equip its entire people to lead...show more

They engage in all forms of examination malpractice both during examination and post examination
i.e. through the aid of the lecturers. This has been attributed to many factors among which is
inadequate exam invigilators in the hall, parental pressure for good results, societal approval of an
outstanding result that stand as a meal ticket and a means to climb the social ladder and be affiliated.
Therefore, an educational institution such as a University that does not uphold the conduct of a fair
examination of its students is only breeding an angry generation that will turn against it sooner or
later. The situation is so pathetic that it needs to be adequately addressed. It is against this
background that this study is carried out.
1.2STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
Ideally, in every human organization including a university setting there is the need for an aptitude
test to test the improvement and the acquisition on knowledge that has been acquired over the
period of learning. This is done to know the direction the education system is going, the learning and
assimilation rate of the student as well as to identify the weak ones and help improve them for a
better future. This is done through the writing of an aptitude test or examination. And there are
stated guide line guiding the conduct of all students in every university, University of Abuja
included, so as to ensure a free

Many times I sat for hours contemplating my blank piece of paper just trying to figure out how to
begin to write the creative writing assignment due in a few days for my high school English class. I
knew that learning to write well took patience and practice, much like learning any other skill. I

find the same attitude to develop my writing skills. I knew also that I wanted to continue my
education and pursue a law degree. Definitely my writing skills had to be developed.

However, this semester has truly allowed me to develop my confidence as a writer. I was not asked
to write something out of nothing. The writing tasks have generated from already written selections.
I have come to understand that reading and writing are interrelated. By becoming a better reader, I
become a better writer. Reading is, thus, a springboard to writing. This semester reading has provided
the guidelines for my writing assignments. I had to analyze something already written, internalize
the meaning and re–write it in my own words. This strategy gave me the assurance I needed to
develop my English writing skills. I have grown in vocabulary and I have grown in my ability to
express my ideas. Reading and then writing in response to that reading gave me confidence because
my response was my creation. Each person is unique in his/her manner of expression, thereby,
producing unique pieces of writing.
Throughout my college courses, I know that I will be called on to do much writing in response to
material read. I will have to analyze the ideas presented by different authors and react to them
using my own words. I will also be asked to respond to literary works and I may, perhaps, have to do
creative writing of many kinds. This is the beginning of a lifelong program of reading and writing. I
know that it is a sustained process of recursive reading and writing where I will constantly evaluate

My Night Before My Final Exam
I walk in to a classroom; the only one in there is me. I sit down, and my teacher hands me a test. I
start to panic. I crammed for the test the night before; however, I look at the test with confusion.
The feeling of anxiety starts to take over my mind because I cannot think of the answers.
Suddenly, I wake up in the middle of the night; my breathing is fast and my forehead is sweating.
I had this nightmare the night before my final exam in AP Biology. I had spent the last two
weeks studying for this one particular exam because I needed to make an A on the exam to pull
out with an A in the class. The stress in those two weeks had been one of the most stressful
moments in my life because of the pressure I had on making an A. There were moments when I
almost gave up, but because I took deep breaths when I was stressed out, did not procrastinate,
and took breaks when breaks were needed, I had reached the goal of making an A on both the
quiz and the test. Whenever I was too stressed to think straight, I just took a deep breath. Many
